18 HUGE WWE WrestleMania 36 Predictions You Need To Know
12. The Street Profits (c) Vs. Austin Theory & Angel Garza
Yes, NXT pet project Austin Theory has been added to the heel side alongside Angel Garza in place of an injured Andrade as of the go-home Raw, but WWE elected to keep this match alive in canon for several days after the reveal of the change, so who are we not to preview what might have been as well as the actual contest? The image above, much like the wrestlers in question, is more interesting that the replacement.
A personal memory here in place of there being no angle to talk about. When your writer was but a wide-eyed video shop kid itching for Saturday to come and another rental to be taken home for as many watches as could be squashed into the 24 hour loan window, one of the great fascinations was in the images of those that never actually made the show.
Survivor Series was always a good one because of the number of wrestlers needed for those elimination matches. The Widowmaker missed the 1989 Survivor Series, Sgt Slaughter was back as a babyface for Ricky Steamboat in 1991, The Ultimate Maniacs were gone but sorely missed just days before the 1992 event, and so on.
At last, the above picture has some value - it's a curio that can be talked about in the future just like it was here, in the glum present.
Winners - The Street Profits
